Friends

~~~~~~~~~~~

Some of us have been blessed with many friends. There are those of us who go through life never ever to have the warmth, the caring, the closeness of a friend, a true friend. Many acquaintances might refer to us as their friend and we of them but to have the deepness of the love of a true friend is a fortune that few of us ever realize in a lifetime. It is not that Grandfather has not put one on this Earth to be a friend but one that we have yet to find or may never ever find in our lifetime. Someone to share life, the fun, the sadness, the happiness, the sorrow, to support one another. The rich man counts his money, one who is rich in the heart, in the Soul, in the mind and in the Spirit counts his friends. You are no more poor if you have but one but you are truly rich if you have money. A true friend does not have to be physically close, you can feel the vibrations of that friend from a distance. You can feel their support when you touch the waters, when you feel a breeze, when you feel the Earth. You can hear that friends voice in the gentle breeze, the call of the wolf, the songs of the birds.

That friend is all around you, all you have to do is look about, listen, feel those vibrations. You can feel the warmth of that friend in the sun, the warm desert sands, one that is spiritually with you in any moment, at any time, in all eternity. A true friend, not one that says they are and does behind your back, talks behind your back, is not there in a time of need. This feeling of friendship works both ways, the giving and the receiving. The greatest loss of all is not of wealth, is not of material things but the loss one way or the other of that friend whether it be through a misunderstanding, through a difference of opinion or having that friend cross to the other side, even if that friend, that true and everlasting friend would move a great distance away you can still have those vibrations. The warmth, the aroma, the scent of that person, you can still hear their voice. A friendship is solid and secure as a giant boulder as sure as the morning sun, as the moon and stars. Be close with that individual, that friend, even in death, if that friend crosses over and goes to the other side to be with Grandfather and to reside in the Heavenly Village, the Heavenly Lodge, you can still hear and see and feel, even touch that friend and all the wonderful and beautiful things that surround us.

A true friend is forever, will not tarnish, will not evaporate, will not disappear like the clouds in the sky. Look up to the heavens, this friend as a cloud, may pass you by and may seen to disappear, they are only traveling through their life, their space. You look up and you see the stars in the sky, you see movement in the forest, the leaves gently waving, rippling of waters bidding you to have a good day or sleep well. A good friend is like nature, Forever. You should treat the Earth as a good friend, as a good friend gives all they have to give and as a good friend you should give back all you have to give.

Do not ever, ever lose sight of the richness, the fullness, the contentment of having or being a good friend, a true friend, one of the mind, of the heart, of the Soul and of the Spirit. If Grandfather allows our paths to cross with this good friend we should truly be appreciative and if our path with this individual that Grandfather has put upon this Earth, if our paths never cross it is through no fault of Grandfather, the Medicine Men, the Holy Men, the Great Warriors, the Heavenly Council. We have somewhere in life taken the wrong fork in the road which is by our choosing whichever fork in the road we choose to take. This is one advantage that we as humans have, full mental capabilities to make decisions, no one is to blame. There are some of us with a destiny never to have love. Maybe our destiny is only to have nature as a true and undying forever close friend. We are blessed with nature, we are blessed with all of Grandfathers creations and beauty, if we never ever have a friend of the human variety or if we were only blessed with one friend there is no one to blame, not Grandfather, not yourself. You go through life, be happy with what you have been blessed with. Show hospitality, show friendship, be friendly to all of those that abound our lives whether it be creatures that walk beside of us, birds of the air, fish of the waters, the grasses, the moss, the rock, the trees, the sand, the full moon, the bright sun, the glistening stars.
